Subject: Hello--how far are you into the Outlander series? I myself would have had dificulties had I not read them all prior to reading the Lord John books, but that's just me. The author hasn't yet explained exactly what John did to get himself banished to Ardsmuir; we'll have to wait to find out (groan!) I think it is very cool of DG to portray a wonderful gay male character in her stories. There will be two more books on Jamie and Claire, and I am sure "all will be revealed". I've learned that DG will rarley leave a stone unturned.

  • Marilyn, just a quick note--I think Jamie is pretty understanding considering what he is going through himself. I might have killed John had he said what he did under the circumstances. Remember that Jamie is suffering guilt for Geneva's death and reliving his own losses--Claire, his family at Lallybroch, Scotland and freedom, to name some significant ones--so he is not in the best position to be "understanding." John Grey is responsible for some of his misery and I think it would be less realistic if Jamie were to be accepting of such a dramatic deviation of 18th C morals and attitudes. And we do know that later . . .well, I for one eagerly await "Lord John and the Scottish Prisoner." ;-) (NT) -- KathleenM, 20:18:38 09/23/07 Sun
